Title: [Nominations] The Black Clack Award 2014 - Presented by kmiller8
Post by: kmiller8 on Fri, 17 October 2014, 18:31:37

I'm giving out an award at the end of the year for the person who does the most destructive thing to a keycap. I'm thinking $100 and maybe a special keycap.

Going Ted Bundy on a Jack Clack is going to be hard to surpass ...

Very interesting giveaway concept.  Does the cap have to remain usable afterwards or just utterly destroy it?  Does it have to be a mech cap/board or does rubberdome/thin profile (New Apple keyboards) apply?

I guess it gotta be some crappy key cap because why would anyone destroy a clack, worth > $100, to have a chance (is there even one against Moose's Jack? to get back $100 and a keycap? This contest is not going to be popular otherwise.

You're overthinking it, just break something and see if I like it.
